At REST.

Again happy household is called to mourn
the loss OF a dear one As the deep shades Of
night grew deeper, and all sought downy
couchcs, one home was gathered around the bed
side, where Lydia had fell asleep, 10 sleep the
sleep that knows no waking. After lingering
illness Of many, many weary weeks she passed
away March IS, 1887, at the residence Of her
father Mr.. Daniel Welker, Mt. Scott, Oregon.
She was laid to rest in the Oak creek cemetery
amid the tears of many who loved her. She
was one Of twelve children, six of whom had
already passed to their eternal rest. Weep
not parents, brothers and sisters, Lydia has
only joined those gone before. Dear father
and mother, although your little group only
numbers FIVE, remember how in paradise
grows your store. Mourn not for those gone
before, but doubly cherish those left with you.
When you come TO pass through the valley of
shadows, the sweet voices Of your children
will be the first TO welcome You home. The
sympathy of the entire community so out
to the heart broken mourners. 'Tis hard to
part with one we love. For Lydia there is no
more toll, pain or suffering, she will never
know heartache. She wasamiable, joyful and
kind, her young friends and schoolmates loved
her dearly. At home where her hands were
ever willing, she will be most missed. No
more will her merry peals oflaughter and jolly
jokes greet us. Loved and dear one farewell
until we meet in the here after. Farewell.
''Iard It's to lay You
Within the cold and silent tomb,
Yet we shall meet you
Where care and sorrows never come,
Earthly treasures perish,
With loved and dear ones
To meet you in our heavenly home"

Decline of CounterfeitIng.

An industry which was formerly OF
great Importance, but which has
dwindled into insigniicance, 10 the
manufacture of counterfeit money. Tic
had many able exponenis, but like
more exalted occupations, it has suf-
fered from the want of proper system
of apprenticeship The great masters
of o generation ago have disappeared,
either through death or other enforced
retirement, and no one has been
trained to take their places. The chief
cause of this, in the opinion OF q
national bank officer who was discuss
ing the question recently, is the in
creased vigilance and activity of the
government.
The task of the government, how
ever, has been very much easier, said
he, by reason of the tact that since
the war there have been no state
banks to issue currency. Under the
old system there were SO many styles
of bills it was almost impossible to
keep track of them all, so as to distln-
guish the counterfeit from the genuine.
The difficulty was all the greater be-
cause the bank bills were of so low q
grade of workmanship that it was
very easy to counterfeit them. Con-
sequently counterfeiting was a regular
business. During the war, when the
government had its hands full oil other
matters, the business flourished. For
some time after the war, also, counter
feiting was very common
What else has hurt the business p
well the processes of manufactur-
ing both specie and bills are constant
ly becoming more delicate and costly.
To turn out an absolutely perfect bill
or coin now requires very expensive
and bulky machinery. No counter
feiter has the money to buy such ma
chinery and no place to put it up in
If he had it. Consequently his goods
are inferior and easily detected. I'm
former times @ skillfnl workman could
turn out queer money. Processes OF
manufacture were simple. Then it
was impossible to crush the business

dom seen in bank. Genteel crooks
have turned from counterfeiting to the
'sawdust' game. 1t is safer and more
proftable.-[New York Commercial

If the retail butcher does his own
killing. he receives whatever addition
al profit there is in the 50 allowed for
this work. The prices of meat are
those paid by the average consumer in
Chicago. II suburban towns. where
there is much competition. the porter
house steak is sold the same as the
sirloin, at 16 cents. Meat is sold too
high TO the consumer, who now p avs
almost as much as when the producer
was getting S5@S15 per head more
than now for his cattle. The retail
butchers have very dim vision when
the papers report decline in cattle
markets; but it is rule that does not
work both ways.
In response to our protest against
the high rates. some butchers claim
that their rent ice. delivery wagons
and men, loss in trimming. in meat
spoiled on their hands, in bad ac-
counts. ETC.. leave them very small
margin. How then did they live when
paying S59s15 more per carcass?
The losses are but trifling. Most of
them weigh the eaks before trim
mings off corners, extra tallOw and
bone, and even utilize some of this
waste. Meat in danger of spelling
goes into the corning" tub. Readers
who depend upon the butcher can.
with the above figures as a general
guide, demand fair rate on what
they purchase. Farmers can learn
from them the advantage of doing
heir own killing A few neighbors
uniting in taking carcass killed in
turn by one of their own number. can
effect a material saving.-Prairie
